AIS Summer Camps: Fun in Any Language

Amusement, diversiòn, Spaß: This summer at AIS, we've got many ways to say "fun" during our summer camp program. Every day, our goal is to inspire your children to learn about –- and make a difference in -- their world.

Kicking off the summer we've got our annual basketball camp, Waddy's Hoop School, ideal for the basketball star in your family. This one-week, all-day session is perfect for rising 6th through 9th graders boys and girls who want to improve their game. Week two in our summer brings our new volleyball camp, where children coming in to 4th through 12th grades will improve their skills and understanding of the game.

Kaleidoscope is our new all-day camp for students ages 4 to 12. It's sure to be fun-filled and action-packed every day and is available all summer, from June 12 through to July 28.

We have three new camps sure to bring new campers: Lego Robotics, Introduction to Programming and a USA Chess camp

Of course, highlighting the summer are our popular language camps held in Chinese, English as a Second Language (ESL), French, German and Spanish. Starting the week of July 10, campers will be immersed in the language and culture for a three-week or two-week session. They will spend all day developing their second language skills in a variety of ways that ensures improvement, understanding and fun. Our language camps draw students from all over the metro area – and with a rich diversity, these camps provide your child with a global educational community where respect and appreciation for citizens of the world are as integral to the curriculum as academics.

Our Summer Enrichment classes are back for students in grades 5 through 12 in Math and English for a three- or two-week half-day session starting July 10.

New this year, all camps include snacks, lunch*, and a camp T-shirt. As always, an extended day program is available for campers who wish to come early and stay late -- who wouldn't? Check out our website for more details and on-line registration.
